DevConf.IN 2026

This session is a practical, demo-driven walkthrough of how I being a cloud architect use an open source AI copilot called Skyflo.ai to speed up day-to-day DevOps and SRE workflows, without sacrificing safety or compliance. We'll dive into a real incident in a live Kubernetes environment with a Jenkins deployment, where the audience will see the AI agent in action, and how I prompt the agent to triage the incident, decide on the next steps, and act on it. Attendees will see how teams are cutting incident response time by utilizing Skyflo and it's human-in-the-loop approach.

Key Takeaways:

• Learn how I cut down incident response time by 50% at Storylane by using an AI copilot
• See how to use an AI copilot to speed up your Kubernetes, Argo, Helm, and Jenkins workflows
• Understand the human-in-the-loop architecture of Skyflo and behind the scenes of how it works

Live Demo Plan (70% time):

1) Trigger a deployment on Jenkins using Skyflo
2) Wait for the agent to report back with the status of the deployment
3) The pipeline will succeed, but the deployment in Kubernetes will fail
4) The agent will go through a process of discovery to find the root cause of the issue
5) The agent will decide on the next steps and act on it

Under-the-Hood (30% time):

• Brief Architecture Tour: How LangGraph and MCP are used to power the Skyflo agent
• Custom MCP Server: kubectl/helm/argo/jenkins with typed parameters and validation
• Streaming over SSE: Live events over Redis pub/sub and server-sent events over MCP
